Wicketkeeper
Dane Vilas: Dane Vilas is an integral part of Lancashire's set-up, complementing the likes of Phil Salt and Tim David perfectly. He comes into the game on the back of a fine fifty against Essex and will be keen to continue his form in the semi-finals. Although Phil Salt is not a bad option at all, Vilas' experience sets him apart.
Batter
Adam Lyth: Adam Lyth has been in sublime form in recent weeks, scoring a big hundred against Surrey, albeit in the County Championship. Lyth has scored 518 runs at a healthy strike rate of 177.40 in the T20 Blast. With form on his side and the conditions also suited to batting, Lyth is a good addition in your YOR vs LAN Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Jordan Thompson: Jordan Thompson pulled off a miracle in Yorkshire's quarter-final win over Surrey, defending four runs in the final over. Thompson has been decent with the ball in the tournament, picking up 17 wickets so far. With his variations and batting skills bound to come in handy, he is one to watch out for in this game.
Bowler
Matt Parkinson: Matt Parkinson will add some much-needed strength to the Lancs' bowling attack. Although he underwhelmed against the India last week, Parkinson serves as the focal point of the Lancs' bowling attack. Given his wicket-taking ability and form in the T20 Blast, Parkinson is a must-have in your YOR vs LAN Dream11 fantasy team.
